Bought a s4 mini to give it a try. Could never find a good small phone. I would like to root and install custom ROM. I have i9195 model. Any root guides and ROMs you recommend?
Thanks!

Use this for ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga.../rom-cyanogenmod-14-0-s4-mini-3g-lte-t3471761
Use this for Recovery: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2678420

It's a great phone - probably the best Android phone of its size, with excellent dev support.
Enjoy!

Hi!!
I just wanted to ask if I have to be first root on my note II in order to install CyanogenMod, that's right?
can I install CyanogenMod rom on my note II without being root?
Cheers.

Yes you need root and a custom recovery

Check out www.galaxynote2root.com for all the info you need on rooting, flashing and recovery programs I have heard this rom can be a little unstable but have not yet tried it. I use WanamLite rom and love it, very close to stock with more benefits and very stable

Read the CM10.1 nightly thread, it has instructions.
Hi,
Just wanted to ask if cyanogenmod is stable enough for my Note II. I am looking for a stable rom... the closest one to the stock because I would not like to get a stone as phone...
Is WanamLite working properly?
Regards and thanks!
I tested both roms for same time, both very stable. However my opnion is that if you want a rom very similar to stock what is the fun? Nothing new to play around.
I'm using now Moon v8, a lot of features, good battery and no issue so far.

Well, sure - I'll have fun installing a rom and all that stuff but I had an iphone and I got tired saving everything before jailbreaking and then install everything.. when a new version was released the cycle again... so I'd like to have a phone with cyanogenmod o whatever mod rom but I don't want to change rom every time... at least I don't want to save my pictures and do a list of apps to download after installing a new rom because last one was unstable.... you know what I mean? I hate Samsung stock.. but works fine.. I think...
Thanks.

thanks bro i downloaded the file it was 1.5 gigs, so do you know which custom recovery works best for tmo galaxy s4? and which version?
thanks in advanced:good:
CWM and TWRP both work but with kitkat roms personally I've had better luck with TWRP (using 2.7.0.0).
Alright thanks let me back up my phone text and let the rooting begin...

Hi!
It's the first time I try to flash a ROM on my Galaxy S3 and I don't wanna do anything that would brick my phone,so that's why I'm asking here for your help.
So, I'm looking for a ROM that looks like KitKat 4.4. I searched a bit and I've found a great ROM, Resurection Remix but I don't see it avaible for my phone ( SGH-I747M Koodo). Is it avaible for my phone? where can I download it?
If not, which ROM would work with my phone? My firend told to not use CM 11.
thanks!

since your phone is i747M, any rom you found in this forum, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att, will work

it's now unified, before it was unified, it was d2att
so look for D2LTE instead
Try to find slimroms or beanstalk.Carbon is OK but overall CyanogenMod is the best choice.

If you're interest in custom ROMs for i9192 we have cm11, carbon ROM and mokee fully working
It's a nice device I'll definitely buy it again

You can find official up to 4.4.2, about android L well I think it's too soon to tell, there are no sources available possible cyanogen will bring it but we're not sure if will be compatible with the multi sim framework
i really suggest you but the i9190/i9195 because the dual sim variant will have some dual sim issues with custom roms .. etc .. for now its okay but who knows when android L arrives :angel:
I'll certainly buy a non-duos phone if I find one because every body wants dual phones in my country. I've got 3 other questions:which is better s3 4g or s4 mini(in terms of performance and development) and will rooting , installing custom roms or even factory reset relock an unlocked phone(I'm talking about sim lock) ??? And if I buy a locked (like orange locked phone) will i still be able to install ROMs and root the same way i do for an originally unlocked phone??
Thx in advance

Hi Everyone,
I am just a little curious coming from note 3 and Oneplus One, I have been rooting and flashing roms. I have the T-mobile galaxy s6 and there are not much developers out there or any in-progress rom. I 've seen that some people had good luck flashing one or two international roms on the device. I see that we have TWRP and I have it on my phone. What is there out there to flash?
Is it okay to flash International roms and then flash a Kernel?
I am just a little curious because I am stuck with rooted stock and there isn't much that I can do.
Thanks,
Mostly all of the international roms come with unibase kernel which works on all variants so just flash the rom and you're good to go. Make sure you are on the 5.1.1 update first though.

Well their is a rom made specifically for the Tmobile edge now called Atrium. I'm going to stick to that rom so I can retain all Tmobile features.
